Pencil on a Musical Note

In Pencil on a Musical Note I combine pencil marks capturing the essence of lifedrawing models with music. Above image is entitled The long limbs of a Classical Dancer turned Rogue. All sketches are made within 5 minutes during the live drawing session. I love the simplicity and intimacy of pencil drawings, the grainy texture, soft and sharp, with a light sheen, all within one medium. You can find the artist’s response to the environment, what details are picked up, how they are described and equally significant what is omitted. The artist is fully exposed.
